Tangled By Fate

Chapter 204 - ASK YOUR BODY



"Elves?! Do they even exist?! Veronica was stunned. Never in her dream had she thought that things like elves, dragons, and basilisks could be real.

Arthur told her, "They not only exist but also create havoc while using their power."

"This is marvelous. Using natural power as if they are born with it. They are completely different from wizards but it's still so amazing." Veronica was marveled as she thought about it.

"But to use that power to kill innocent people, it's not good. We must stop them. How do we find them? Any clue?" She knew no matter how amazing they were, they needed to be stopped.

"We found out that their information could have been mentioned in the ancient scrolls. The first temple should have those scrolls. We searched my library for information and yet we still haven't found any clue where it can be situated," he concluded. "We must find that temple."

Veronica carefully asked, "The first temple… the most ancient one… Is this where Goddess Juvena prayed in her time?"

Arthur's answer was obvious. "That should be the first temple. Before her, everyone worshipped nature."

Veronica opened her mouth but she was not sure what to say.

She wanted to tell him that she knew what he was looking for but at the same time, she didn't want to share that she was being trained there.

Arthur didn't notice her hesitation. He thought she was confused.

He affectionately rubbed her cheek and said, "Enough about me and my journey. What about you? How are you doing these days?"

Veronica was relieved that the conversation took a turn. She casually replied, "Just sitting in the library and reading books all day."

"Did you eat properly?"

"Yes, Merlin kept an eye on me so that I don't miss my breakfast, lunch, and dinner."

Arthur was a bit surprised by her answer. "Don't tell me you were in the library from day to night."

"We were practically living there," her answer was innocent.

"…"

At that moment in the Imperial Library, Merlin was reading the books. Just then, all the books he finished reading fell down and got mixed with the books he didn't read.

"!!!" The abrupt attack gave Merlin nearly a heart attack. Since magic was forbidden to use around the royal palace, he got a reasonable idea of who the invisible attacker was.

He let out a deep sigh and mumbled, "Veronica the Mistress, did you have to sell me out like that? Who is going to protect me now?"

Back at the resort, Veronica, who knew nothing that happened in the Imperial Library because of her honest answer, stared at her husband.

"Next time you go somewhere, you should take me with you. It was really hard not to have you around." She placed her head on his chest and breathed quietly.

Arthur agreed, "As long as it's not dangerous, I will take you anywhere. But I'm afraid I cannot take you to Utahill and Synetia."

Vernice frowned. "I can understand if it's Utahill but what about Synetia? Didn't they stop searching for me?"

Arthur chuckled. "They did. Since you were in the library, you don't know. The Synetian King went insane after he wasn't able to find you. He was forcefully taking concubines around your age. His sons thought that they had enough. He was slain by his eldest son and he took over the throne."

Veronica gasped. "Oh my! Such a thing to happen!"

Arthur wasn't finished yet. He added, "Not only that, the new King of Synetia must be disgusted by silver hair. He banned all women with silver hair and green eyes. And no one can mention the blessed child in his kingdom."

Veronica pondered before asking, "Even if I change my hair color, I cannot change my eye colors, can I?"

Arthur smiled. "I never needed that potion. It looks like I have to make something for you."

"I'd love that." 

Even in the dark, Arthur could clearly see her face. He stared at her lively face and stated, "You were so busy, you don't look like you missed me that much."

Veronica instantly complained, "How can you say that? If I didn't miss you, would I stay in the library and drown myself with books?"

"Hmm… let's test if you are telling the truth or not."

In the blink of an eye, he changed their positions.

"Wha–?!!!"

Veronica was surprised as she was pushed on the bed and he came above. And her lips were stolen just like that.

It wasn't like drizzling rain turning into a storm. It was a cyclone from the very beginning.

She thought he was going to suck her lifeforce and leave her dry. The passionate kiss made her body temperature rise.

Arthur pushed her legs apart and settled himself. He was missing her – her soul and her body. He rubbed his body against her. He was dying to love her ferociously. 

Veronica was embarrassed and yet joyous to have him back. He wasn't the only one who was yearning for her. She was the same. She raised her lower body and wrapped her legs around his waist.

Arthur pulled her closer so that they were face to face while softly supporting the back of her head and kissed her while sucking on her tongue. Her flexible tongue seemed to be trying to escape. However, he continued to chase after it while pressing and lightly nibbling on it.

He enjoyed playing hide and seek with her. He could sense her lips curling up as though she was trying to hide her smile.

Down there, he was already feeling hot. Just rubbing her secret place wasn't enough. His hands took off her night garments swiftly. He seemed to forget that he could use magic.

He didn't want to think of anything else. In front of him, he had his wife under him. Her body was writhing along with his body.

He had a simple wish.

Not to let her out of the bed for the next two days.
